The lamplighter's serenade - Glenn Miller

A moment after dark

Around the park

An old-fashioned gent comes parading

Dressed in funny clothes

But singing as he goes

The lamplighter’s serenade

The old boy loves a talk

With couples on the walk

But when it’s half after love time

He reaches for his sticks

And from his bag of tricks

He lights every star in the sky

And if a lady or a beau should answer «no»

He sprinkles their hearts with his magic

Then he steals away to sing another day

The lamplighter’s serenade…

And if a lady or a beau

Should find the answer «no»

He sprinkles every heart with magic

Then he steals away to sing another day

The lamplighter’s serenade!!!
